Advocacy Groups - Adversarial Groupings

Adversarial Groupings

On some controversial issues there are a number of competing advocacy groups, sometimes with very different resources available to them:

• Pro-choice movement vs Pro-life movement (abortion policy in the United States)
• SPEAK campaign vs Pro-Test (animal testing in United Kingdom)
• The Automobile Association vs Pedestrians' Association (now 'Living Streets') (road safety in the United Kingdom since 1929)
• Tobacco Institute vs Action on Smoking and Health (tobacco legislation)
• Flying Matters vs Plane Stupid (aviation policy in the United Kingdom since 2007)
